Lakeland Industries, Inc. (the “Company”)
has been informed by RSM China (Shanghai) (“RSM China”), the auditors of the Company’s China subsidiary Weifang
Lakeland Safety Products Co., Ltd. (“Lakeland China”), that RSM China has merged its practice with Ruihua Certified
Public Accountants (“Ruihua CPA”). As a result of the merger, Ruihua CPA, as the successor to RSM China, became the
auditors for Lakeland China on whom the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is expected to express reliance
in its report.
During the two most recent fiscal
years, and thereafter prior to the merger, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted with Ruihua CPA regarding
either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of
audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or Lakeland China’s financial statements, in connection with which
either a written report or oral advice was provided to the Company that Ruihua CPA concluded was an important factor
considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any
matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and
the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K).
